A Gloriously Relaxing Holiday!

5 of 5
Submitted: April 4, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
Our 2 week vacation in Exuma was gloriously relaxing. The cays are beautiful in themselves but to have the white powdery sand and incredible warm turquiose water only a few steps away from our patio was truly amazing!
Our villa at Palm Bay was our "home away from home". Even though our hosts, Kathy and Fred were not there, we felt their welcome the moment we stepped through the door. They have made it their quest to make sure their guests are happy and comfortable. The villa is nicely appointed and well-equipped and so user-friendly - even down to the beach toys, photo albums, reading materials and tips on where to go and what to eat! It was all there to make our hiatus away from the chaos of that other world, extra special. There is so much to make us want to return and...WE WILL!
Recommended for:  Age 55+, Adventure Seekers, Romantic Getaway
Owner's Response: We're so glad that you were comfortable in Villa 30! It sounds as though you made the most of your time exploring Exuma but left a few things for your next visit. Enjoy your sunny memories!

Our Own Private Resort

Submitted: February 26, 2013 Stayed: January 2013
My wife and I had our honeymoon at Villa #30 of the Palm Bay Beach Club. I was hoping to enjoy the amenities of a resort without the crowds that are sometimes associated with the high rises. We couldn't have been more pleased with our selection.

We found the resort to be extremely quiet and relaxing. Despite the nearness of others, we enjoyed great privacy at the resort and on other nearby beaches.

To explore Elizabeth Harbor, we rented a 17' Boston Whaler from Minns in George Town. I don't think we could have had more fun doing so. The resort allowed us to moor overnight for a nominal fee, and the rental afforded the freedom to visit some of the better restaurants we came across.

The only difficulty we had initially was tracking down food that we enjoyed, but once we had the boat, we went to Big Dee's and St. Francis Marina and Resort on Stocking Island. After that, we looked no further.

All in all, our experience was excellent. Our international travel experience is limited, but we found no surprises in our visit. Kathy provided us with volumes of information prior to our visit, and she clearly bent over backwards to make sure that everything was prepared prior to our arrival. At this point, our only problem is trying to find time to get back down.

Sad to leave...:D We will be back...:D

Submitted: February 26, 2013 Stayed: February 2013
We had such a wonderful time adventuring all over the Island(s). From the moment we turned the corner to go to the Villa, we knew we had chosen the right place for our Vacation. We adventured out on 4 C's adventure one day, Stocking Island another, Geocaching another, golf, a couple of down days just relaxing on the beach and we didn't want to leave. Everything was communicated to us in advance which made it so much easier for us when we arrived. We felt we knew what and when to do things.. Thank You! We will be back...

Beachside Villa

5 of 5
Submitted: November 30, 2012 Stayed: November 2012
Fantastic location right at the beach, with stunning views out to the aqua colored seas and isands. Lovely small beach right out front, or a 5 min walk to an even more beautiful undeveloped (all to ourselves at this time of year) bigger beach. The Palm Bay Beach club had all the amenities of a big resort, but was quaint and offered the home away from home feel. Love all the colorful cottages/villas. Our villa was clean, comfortable, nicely decorated and had everything we needed. Customer service from the owners, managers, to local residents was top notch. Although we enjoyed the 20 min walk to town, the complimentary shuttle came in handy. Stocking Island is a piece of paradise not be be missed. Enjoy the fun loving Bahemian folk!
Owner's Response: I'm glad to hear that your girls getaway was a success and that you enjoyed Villa 30, Exuma and the beautiful surrounding areas - It was a pleasure to help you plan this holiday.

Back from our trip to the Exumas (unfortunately!)

Submitted: August 14, 2012 Stayed: August 2012
Our stay at villa #30 was just amazing.  We would like to thank you for
everything! We felt so welcomed with all the preparation you and Wendy did
for us (ie emails and information, bread/milk/water waiting for us, Wendy's
greetings).

The place was perfect for us, fantastic and clean.  We appreciated the
washing machine, beach accessories and snorkeling gears which we made sure
to return clean.
We enjoyed the resort facilities (shuttle, pool, ping pong table, kayaks,
restaurant) but our best was by far Jolly Hall Beach where we went every
day.  I understand now why you call it your secret beach!!!

The 3rd day, we rented a boat at Minns and spent the day visiting and
chilling at Stocking Island (came back with many sand dollars!!!)

We left the place on Thursday for the Emeral Bay marina where we spent the
afternoon (at Grand Isle Resort) before checking in on our catamaran.
The week on the catamaran was just like paradise!

I guess we'll have to come back!

I hope everything was fine after our departure.  We made sure to left the
place as clean as it was when we took it!
We are keeping your contact information for a next time.

Great thanks again for having made our vacation so memorable.
